Ultrafast Two-Electron Orbital Swap in Li Initiated by Attosecond Pulses

A universal mechanism of ultrafast 2-electron orbital swap is discovered through 2-photon sequential double ionization of Li. After a 1s electron in Li is ionized by absorbing an extreme ultraviolet photon, the other 2 bound electrons located on 2 different shells have either parallel or antiparalle...
